Defenestrate

from Shame a Politician by Eric Blowtorch

/

lyrics

You, you authoritate
You stand upon the state
You never tolerate
You’d better abdicate
You, you, you

Lest we defenestrate
because you stand upon the state
and you step on everyone

Hey there, candidate
Hail thee, good and great
Joke about the flaming fate of mankind

Call out the press
Babble like a madman
Threaten first strike
Get out of my sight

Lest I defenestrate
because you stand upon the state
and you step on everyone

Now I’m so glad there is a right-wing party
for our misfits to suck each others thumbs
but we don’t need two, said we don’t need two
I changed my mind: we don’t need one

Sleaze is the word or so you have heard
above the propellers’ propelling
You make the argument for Yankee parliament
strangely compelling

Abdicate
lest we defenestrate
Abdicate lest we defenestrate
